AMD Phenom New world record Overclock

More than just having widely known footballers and beautiful women, it appears to have some world record breaking overclockers hidden away in places.

A person known only as rbuass on the popular website xtremesystems.org posted some cpu-z screenshots showing a huge increase on the otherwise standard AMD Phenom II X4 975 Black Edition of 7.13Ghz setting a new world record for any AMD processor.

The Exact clock speed was 7134.31Mhz at a voltage of 1.788V

Although higher clocks have been achieved in the past on ancient old Intel chips it’s nice to see such results on a more modern mainstream processor from the AMD camps.
